How Can Outsourcing Your Client Billing
Save You Time, Put More Money in Your Pocket,
and Help You Grow Your Practice?

Ultimately, when you get right down to it, the only reason to outsource any task or function in your business is if it saves you time and/or money.

Think of it this way… you need to spend as much as your time as possible on “revenue producing activities” (RPA).

And that probably means client work based on your billable hour rate.

Every hour you spend NOT working on client case work, and NOT on marketing your practice to bring in new clients is costing you… big time!

So, the benefits for outsourcing your client invoicing to a legal billing services company like ours is:

1. to free up some of your time
2. to help you get paid on time
3. to save you money

Could your practice benefit from improvement in just ONE of these areas?

Legal Billing Services – Saving You Time

How we save you time versus software…

Now, as you know there are a ton of software solutions out there for tracking billable hours and invoice creation.  And though there’s no such thing as the “perfect” program that will meet ALL of your needs, most are good enough to do the job.

Except there’s only one problem…

No software package on the planet can do the work for you.  It’s a simple as that.  Even the best software requires…

YOU to do ALL the work.  You have to…

• sit in front of YOUR computer
• enter the data yourself (or hire someone to do it for you)
• print the invoices on YOUR paper
• stuff YOUR envelopes
• and apply YOUR postage.

And for many solo-practitioners and boutique law firms, that’s precisely the problem.

How we save you time versus hiring someone in-house…

If you want to handle billing in house, that means finding someone to work the amount of hours you’d like them to work.   And then training them, getting them up to speed, only to have them leave for a “better” job with more pay and benefits.

One attorney I know went through three different front office staff people in less than a year.  How much do you think this disrupted his practice?

Additionally, when you hire someone “in-house” to handle your billing for you, you have to deal with some (or all) of these issues…

1. Payroll Tax
2. Worker’s Compensation
3. Expensive Benefit Packages
4. Paid Vacations
5. Sick Days

The list goes on.  Now, when you add all of that into the mix how is that helping you grow your practice?

Legal Billing Services – Helping You Get Paid on Time

How we help you get paid on time

Does this describe your situation: juggling the demands of working with clients while trying to grow your practice?  Maybe you have family obligations that seem to cut into more of your free time.

There just doesn’t seem to be enough hours in the day.

And that was Marcia’s story…

She runs a virtual law practice with an office roughly twenty miles from her home.  Most times she travels into the city to meet with her clients, which is another hour or so from her office.

Most days it means she’s on the road.  A LOT.

This meant that she didn’t return home until late in the evening.  There was barely enough time to  tuck the kids into bed, have dinner, and a little down time.

So the last thing on her mind most nights was turning on the computer and sitting in front of the screen generating invoices for all her hard work.  By the time she got around to thinking about generating her invoices it was nearly midnight.

How do I know all this?  Because one day over coffee she admitted that she probably lost 100k a year on lost invoices.  As crazy as it sounds, she shared with me that many times it was months before she’d finish the invoice and mail to a client, only to have the client refuse payment.

And if they did pay her, the check would take as long to get to her bank account as it did for her to send out the invoices.  We’re talking months wasted waiting for checks to arrive.

The worst part is, all that running around and hard work for nothing.

It does NOT have to be this way…

Legal Billing Services – Saving You Money

How we save you money

An attorney recently shared with me that he’s on his third admin assistant in the past year.  Why do they keep leaving?

1. They want more money
2. They want more hours
3. They want benefits
4. They want 4 weeks vacation time

Our tax-deductible service saves you the hassles and headaches of hiring (and re-hiring) front office people.  You don’t have to pay…

• employment tax
• worker’s comp
• expensive benefit packages
• vacation/holiday pay
• sick days

Not to mention…

• using your paper, envelopes, toner, etc.
• using your postage

What’s more, we create for you a billing service process that runs on autopilot.  Our billing service gets your invoices out the door each and every month.

The Legal Billing Process

Here’s how it typically works…

1. You fax in your notes and/or time sheets
2. You call a toll free number to leave a voice message with your billing notes
3. We generate the first draft of the client invoice
4. We fax all first drafts to your office for your review
5. You mark up the invoice with your changes, corrections and/or additions
6. We amend the invoice, print it out for you, and mail it to your clients

It’s that simple.

You remain in control of the entire process.  All we do is relieve you of the tedious data entry, stuffing envelopes and licking stamps.

For some clients, we even accept payments for their office and electronically deposit the checks in their bank account.  Additionally, we provide monthly reporting so you know…

1. your monthly revenue
2. which clients have paid
3. which clients still owe you money

In fact, here’s what one client was kind enough to share about his experience with the service…

“I figure you save me about 3 hours per month.  Not only does your service help me compete with larger firms, but I’m saving roughly $500 per month.  Thanks for all your help.”
— J. Vance Hancock, Westport, CT

After all, you went into business to do what you do best, and you deserve to paid for your expertise.
